I’ve never use this Mapei slc before, but it does look a bit cloudy, like it’s not mixed right.

As said above always mix the whole bag, but I tend to hold back a handful in the bag as it just allows the mix to be a bit better at flowing without affecting its strength.

Appreciate your advice, thankyou.

Although, I was very careful when halfing the bag, I had weighing scales. Still recommend to use the whole bag? Do you use the whole bag as the fibres may have settled at the bottom?

Let the games begin! Any ideas why this has happened?

Yep.

The thing with slc is not to worry about it, follow the instructions on the bag and don’t play around with it.

Mix, pour and smooth out with a spiked roller.

Done the above floor yesterday with Mapei ultraplan perhaps the best slc I’ve used, was able to walk onto this floor without marking it in 4 hours.
The residue in your backed looked a bit off colour.
